What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser when you visit. They help the site remember things about you — like whether you are logged in — and help us understand how people use the site so we can improve it.

Some cookies are essential for the site to function. Others are used for analytics and can be disabled without breaking your experience.

Essential cookies

These cookies are required for the site to work. You cannot opt out of them while using Food Bricks.

Cookie Set by Purpose

__stripe_mid Stripe Used by Stripe to detect and prevent fraud during payment processing. Only active on checkout pages.
__stripe_sid Stripe Stripe session identifier for secure payment flows. Expires at the end of your browser session.
__cf_bm Cloudflare Cloudflare bot management cookie. Distinguishes human visitors from automated bots to protect the site. Expires after 30 minutes.
_cfuvid Cloudflare Cloudflare rate-limiting cookie. Used to manage traffic and protect the site from abuse. Session-based.

Analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how people use Food Bricks. We use Google Analytics 4 to track page views, feature usage, and general site performance. This data is aggregated — we cannot identify individual visitors from it.

You can opt out of analytics cookies at any time (see "How to manage cookies" below) without affecting your ability to use the site.

How to manage cookies

You have several options for controlling cookies:

Browser settings

All modern browsers let you view, block, and delete cookies through their settings or preferences menu. Blocking essential cookies will prevent you from staying logged in.

Opt out of Google Analytics

Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent your visits from being tracked across all sites that use Google Analytics.
